Gwen enjoying some off planet nightlife by JuicyDemon.

Before I get into the changelog, I want to give a quick shout-out to Carol J’s Patreon. I didn’t get a proper plug in the changelog for his Christmas entry, so I’m doing it now. Lovely stuff from that corner if you like femdom.

Now onto the patch notes!

0.7.249 Changelog:

• The Christmas content for Gwen and Eimear is now live, courtesy of Gardeford. Just like last years it is procced by approaching them shortly after closing time (assuming you’ve already hung out with them once). If you’ve done neither event yet, you can do both – simply wait three or so days after the first one before trying again.
• For those at “Good CEO” rank with Rats Raiders, there has been a new option added to the encounter with your rival and Feruze. Click ??? to find out what happens next!
• Fixed a few typos I encountered while doing a playthrough yesterday.

I intend to slide a public patch out on Christmas day, but until then, I have an idea for a reindeer cutie I’d like to write. It’s been a long time since I wrote a holiday NPC myself.

The other bunch of raiders, not yet picture on the blog. Art by Adjatha.

Only one winning scene left to add to the game! With any luck, I’ll have that in by tomorrow evening, and perhaps make a holiday contribution of my own before returning to regularly scheduled content.

0.7.247 Changelog:

• Riya’s event now properly makes sure you’ve met Riya. A check was inverted. My bad!
• If you’re a non-taur on good(ish) terms with Rat’s Raiders and have a vagina (or penis that fits inside) AND have read the Rodenian Codex entry AND it’s Christmas AND you’re on Zheng Shi AND you’re entering your ship… there’s a 25% chance the raiders will show up for a bit of holiday cheer, and even introduce themselves. Golly, that’s a lot of names! (Good work, William!)

0.7.248 Changelog:

• I unfucked a value I had forced to be “true” for the purposes of testing. Nothing to see here, folks!

Shou came up with a new charity. I love it.

What’s new today? A new transformation item, restructuring Jade’s buy menus, and an absolutely enormous five-part dream sequence by Carol J for straight femdom lovers.

0.7.244 & 245 Changelog:

• Higuera’s “Mousearella Cheese” transformation item has been added to the game. Jade sells it in her shop (and the raiders should be able to drop it as well).
• Jade’s shop has been split into three menus: one for very erotic, involved transformations, one for standard transformations, and one for very targeted transformations. Hopefully this’ll make sorting her stuff out easier in the future.
• A new series of dreams that culminate in a possible bad-end have been added to the game, written by Carol J. You can begin to get them after hitting level 7. Note that you must: use masculine pronouns, have a penis, have balls, and have been to New Texas.
  • Update: 0.7.245: Fixed an issue with dream routing, made it so they only occur while sleeping on New Texas, and turning down Alexandra’s dreams twice in a row should disable them. Thanks for all your feedback!
• If you have a basic tongue, the appearance won’t bother talking about it.
• Leveling above level 5 has been slowed down a bit. Hopefully not too much!

Those of you who have been paying close attention to the development of Zheng Shi will have noticed William’s name come up a lot. He came onto the scene slinging bunny-themed hotness left and right, then added a huge orgy scene for seeing your freed slaves go to work, then wrote over 200 pages of mouse boys and girls abusing you for your gems. Well, he’s launched a patreon now. I certainly pay him when he’s doing work I specifically request (like the Shock Hopper content in this patch), but he also writes a lot of stuff entirely out of the goodness and enthusiasm of his own heart. If you like his stuff, consider slinging him some bucks.

Now with the plug out of the way, lets get to the 0.7.243 Changelog:

• It is now possible to enter the Sidewinder, the prototype ship being built in Zheng Shi! You must defeat your rival and his bodyguard and have the keycard from Dr. Teyaal to get in.
• Once inside the ship, it’s possible to take on the leader of the Jumpers: the fearsome Shock Hopper and her diminuative bunny boy-toy-slash-domme: the LDC (Large Dick Collider). Between William and Savin there are a lot of victory scenes on offer here.
• It is now possible to collect the coordinates for the next planet – even if you can’t get there yet. There’s also a few goodies tucked away with it – like an airtight Jumper spacesuit and the legendary fifth Galomax dose.
• New Busts: Rat’s Raiders (all six), Gil the cuntboy, the LDC, and the Shock Hopper. Great work, Shou & Adjatha!
• Lots of fixes and tweaks, especially for Rat’s Raiders.
• Varmints are now considered “self powered” and won’t stop acting just because your shields are down.
• Probably other stuff I’ve missed! Love you guys!

Adjatha does good work.

You might have expected this patch to be the one with the final boss of Zheng Shi, but you were wrong! That project is going fairly slowly, owing to the massive number of variations within some of its scenes – some of which are cool and support things like tailcocks. Other variations are smaller and more mind numbing, like the following passage I’ve constructed as an example: “Your rigid cock{s} plowing into {his/their} mouth{s}{, your balls battering {his/their} chin{s} with a {weighty/chunky/yogurt-flavored} load}.”

You get the (slightly embellished) idea. It’ll create a great end-result, but it is SLOW to churn through.

Luckily, our community coders have been slowly putting some coded submissions into the repo for use in game. Here’s a nice chunk we’ve gotten ready for you guys.

0.7.242 Changelog:

• Struggle code was reworked by SomebodyElseEntirely to make it more clean and consistent across the board and also slightly improve Escape Artist for physique-based characters.
• Showering with Paige is now a thing (largely based off CoC’s “Brooke” scenes), provided by B and coded by LighterFluid.
• Thanks to the efforts of Whimsalot, you can now name your pet varmint.
• Lighterfluid spent some time cleaning up Rat’s Raiders as well as putting some more of their finished busts into the game, with help from their author, William.
• And lastly, Quaelle’s pregnancy expansion (authored by Nonesuch) has been added to the game by DrunkZombie.

Great work guys! I’m going to try and enjoy my weekend and keep chipping at this boss battle when I have time. See you fellas next week for the end of Zheng Shi’s mainline quest progress!

It appears that Lash has pointed out Badger’s NSFW blog to the tumbr police! (This gave me quite a giggle! Thanks, Roman!)

0.7.241 Changelog:

• Badger’s “Quest” for Penny can now be completed even if Penny is on your crew. I had to sort through seven different bimbofication variants and make sure the text was all suitable for her being in your ship for this! More time intensive than I thought. I also had to write some additional text for setting her up as a camwhore in order to match everything else bimbo & cumslut Penny has going on.
• You can now turn Dr. Badger in using Penny’s replacement.
• [pc.cockHeadsNoun] parser is now properly active. [pc.cockHeads] should also be more correct in its outputs.
• Various typo fixes.

Of course that wasn’t all I did today. I reviewed (and more or less approved) a saurmorian transformation item as well as a few other smaller projects. I also did payroll and generally fretted around.

The ability to remove Penny from your ship (and pick her up again) remains as the last thing I need to do for Penny’s follower expansion to call it “done” for the foreseeable future. Zheng Shi stuff will come after, but knowing Will, there’s going to be a ton of variations which will slow down coding. Hopefully we’ll have the pirate base done sometime this weekend regardless.

I snagged this picture of the dryad (Amber) by a pair of artists in the public discord (Roman & Watermystic277). Great work, guys!

Okay, so despite the post title, this doesn’t actually add new Christmas content. However, I’ll be hosting a Christmas-themed contest. Details will be below all the change-log m-m-madness!

0.7.240 Changelog:

• Bimbo Penny can now be recruited to join your crew if you want a cum-slut on the go. The scene for finding her with Mitzi’s panties should also appear for crew bimbo Penny.
• A big ol’ pile of fixes, courtesy of Jacques00’s hard work.

New This Month:

• New quest and minidungeon – recruiting “pure” Penny. This means she can’t be a bimbo or cumslut. Big thanks to the Letter B for helping out with some of the writing on this!
• New encounter in Zheng Shi: Rat Thieves. The last big gang on Zheng Shi to be represented, Rat’s Raiders, fight in groups of three, containing two male and two female rodents that are randomized per encounter, including a full Female Rodenian. Approaching Urbolg three days after beating him will trigger an event and enable them – rarely in the Mines, and commonly in the Foundry.
  • This all-mouse group will always attempt to shake down unaffiliated people wandering Zheng Shi. You have the option of paying their toll in credits, gems, oral sex, or breastmilk. Fighting them is fine, too. True to their name, they are focused on stealing your credits and gems, and their fighting reflects this. If you lose, expect to be relieved of a lot of cash! Be careful of getting stunned!
  • Rat girls and rat boys have different combat abilities and quirks, some shared. The girls have higher shields, more aim, and focus on damaging shields and hindering you. The boys have higher HP, more physique, and focus on damage output. They will also use items frequently amongst each other. There are either two boys or girls in a fight, changing the dynamic of combat – carrying multiple damage types is heavily advised!
  • After enough wins (or losses!), a series of events kicks off where the Rats determine a little something about Steele! This mini-plot can be concluded with enough interactions and input, leading to benefits down the line while also changing all the interactions dynamically.
• Cumslut Penny can now be recruited to your crew via a simple new dialogue chain.
• Crew (pure) Penny can be taken to bed.
• Sera received an expansion from Nonesuch & DrunkZombie. It adds the ability to turn her Sterilex on or off, a reverse cowgirl wakeup scene, a tweaked shower prank to be avoidable after the 1st time, and a tender pussy fuck sex scene.
• New Busts: Half-Rodenian Raiders (M & F)
• New Scenes: Jerking off on holocam with cumslut crew Penny, futa Penny masturbating with Mitzi’s panties, converting regular crew Penny to a camwhore cumslut, volunteering to be Haley’s personal milker, using the ‘taur toys you can get from Urbolg yourself, futa Shekka pegging you, Amber and Mitzi doing “Soak” together. Most of these were penned by Wsan.
• sackDescript adjusted for better readability.
